Postgraduate Study 2023 – Make it Work for You

Alice’s story...*

A year ago, Alice felt as though the possibility of studying for a postgraduate degree while working full-time and balancing other commitments was too far out of reach.

While Alice enjoyed her role, she always wanted to eventually progress into a managerial position and in order to accomplish that she began looking into postgraduate options in the hope of finding a course that would prepare her for such a challenge. It was not to her surprise that many of the programmes in her chosen area were campus-based. This meant the only way Alice could find the time to complete her postgraduate programme would be to cut back on her hours at work and possibly relocate.

“There surely must be a way for me to maintain my current commitments while working towards my postgraduate qualification.” Alice thought.

After an extensive search, Alice came across online programmes at the University of Liverpool. Intrigued by the idea of studying remotely, part-time, at one of the elite Russell Group universities, she attended virtual events and enquired about potential scholarships and discounts.

Alice discovered that not only would she be able to study around her job and family commitments, but she would also receive the same level qualification and recognition from her chosen online postgraduate programme as individuals undertaking a programme on-campus. The best part of it all is Alice would not have to wait until September to turn her dream into reality.

The only thing left to do was to select her course from an extensive list of the University’s online postgraduate programmes, all of which were open to applicants for a January start.

For the first time in months, Alice knew where she stood with her long-awaited plans as her new chapter was about to begin.
